I! Cleaner!-Chapter 1182 - 1084: Competing for Health

Unaware of Leon's promise, or perhaps simply unable to act directly, they resorted to postponing action, even if they knew of the promise but were helpless.

Facing the threat of "Welcome to Hell," and the promotional illustration of the Eighteenth Hell requiring heavy censorship, the originally solid alliance of kings supporting William broke in less than three minutes, completely raising the white flag.

After all, even if they sacrifice their interests or give up a significant portion of their sovereignty, their wealth and status remain intact, not affecting their lifestyle too much.

But if they anger the Food God, they might be thrown into the Eighteenth Hell after death, along with "Mr. W" from the brochure having an oil bath!

Particularly regarding resistance against the Food God, if successful, the entire profit class of the Kingdom would stand to gain, yet they personally would bear the anger and grudges of the Food God...

Why should they?

"I just thought about it, and I find Lord Leon's proposal indeed... insightful."

After an intense psychological struggle, the fickle Queen of the Kingdom of Morna once again recognized the reality, and with a somewhat stiff smile said:

"As Lord Leon mentioned earlier, I've always been... troubled by these issues, and many originally excellent policies were altered when implemented.

Now, with the help of Hell's subsidiary, gradually resolving this major problem, I'm confident our Kingdom of Morna will surely become revitalized, and keep getting better!"

"?!"

What? So decisive?

Watching as the flattery rolled off fluently after overcoming the initial psychological barrier, and even tears of gratitude filled her eyes, resembling an act of "Thanking the Food God for saving me from disaster," the other William-alliance kings were stunned by the strength of her audacity.

Though we were already at a dead end, with the clearing bureau directly supporting the Food God, it seems unlikely we'd resist successfully even if we don't surrender, and persevering is just seeking trouble, yet... why didn't I think of that?

Due to the successful initiation by the Queen of Morna, kings who were struggling internally with royal dignity and reluctant failure were suddenly enlightened.

The situation is stronger than humans!

Since being overpowered is inevitable, rather than getting overridden after resisting the Food God, why not surrender voluntarily!

"Your Majesty Reina makes a valid point!"

The Queen of the Medical Kingdom coughed slightly and stood up second, filled with emotion:

"Indeed, Lord Leon's proposal solved our urgent problems! From now on..."

"From now on, we must strengthen cooperation with the Kingdom of Lutung, striving to regain vitality just like Her Majesty Veronica!"

Interrupting the Medical Queen, the Kidney Deficiency King of the Green Kingdom stood and enthusiastically declared:

"Our Green Kingdom, if nothing else, has an abundance of food crops. Just right for Lord Leon's mutual sharing proposal, ensuring our utmost dedication in the future!"

"Our Sea Cliff Country as well!"

"And our Refracted Kingdom..."

As five of the six William allies expressed their stance consecutively, all eyes turned toward the leader of the William table, the only unspoken King of Thunderstorm Country.

"I..."

Feeling the ambiguous gaze from former allies and scrutiny from the Food God, the King of Thunderstorm Country gritted his teeth, stomped, and stood to declare:

"I'm no longer young, my energy is waning, I've said a lot of nonsense before... I'm... I'm planning to abdicate once I return, letting my youngest daughter inherit my throne!"

"?!!!" xN

You actually... can do that?!

Unexpected that this route was possible, the William-alliance kings were stunned momentarily, glancing at the suddenly hesitant Food God, before the old Sea Cliff King bit his teeth, clenched his fists, and firmly said:

"I also have a daughter... No, I mean I'm also aging! I could let my daughter succeed!"

"??? "

What's with this strange competition suddenly happening? And never mind other comparisons, but all I have are sons! How am I supposed to follow this?

After the Sea Cliff King expressed his stance and realized all eyes were on himself, as the last male sovereign among the Twelve Kingdoms, the Kidney Deficiency King of the Green Kingdom's complexion changed, and he couldn't help but look to Leon, hoping the Food God would intervene to halt this absurd competition.

Receiving his gaze, Leon pondered briefly, and amidst the frightening or disapproving gazes from the queens, spoke:

"How about... you step down too? Let your daughter ascend?"

"?!!! "

"No, it's not what you think. I suggest you abdicate for a reason; you know about the Northern Kingdom affair, don't you?"

Leon, explaining the extraordinary item activation requirement, perceived the filled confusion in the souls but then watching the kings begin to comprehend, Leon emphasized:

"What I'm saying is true! This really is an exceptional item activation condition; I don't have any odd fetish!"

"Mmm mmm mmm!"

"Yes, yes!"

"We believe you!"

"..."

You believe nothing... fine, it's up to you...

As Leon shook his head in resignation, abandoning attempts to dispel the rumor, the King of Thunderstorm Country gritted his teeth, squeezed out a smiling face, and tried to patch things:

"Lord Leon, if you had changed the sequence a bit before, mentioning this first, we wouldn't have been so awkward earlier."

Right, why didn't you say so earlier?

Listening to the King of Thunderstorm Country, the William-alliance kings couldn't help but nod.

Although surrendering to the Food God's earlier conditions indeed required significant sacrifices, the Food God clearly offers substantially more, if he adjusted the sequence...

If I had adjusted the sequence, you'd only have demanded more.

Watching the slightly discontented eyes of the King of Thunderstorm Country, Leon responded with a non-committal smile, as Ms. Salty glanced at William, who thoughtfully continued writing.

Having chocolate first then getting beaten results in grudges, whereas getting beaten first then having chocolate results in gratitude.

Thus, only by displaying intentions and capability for harm, will your "goodwill" be truly valued and accepted... speaking of which, I've added a new insight, should I ask for another chocolate bar?
